Did I miss anything? last time I checked Ibanez wasn't making 7-strings, other than the UV777BK.

Come to think of it maybe I got confused and they just weren't doing any more 7-string J-Customs.

They've still been making the Apex models, the RG7321, RG1527, and S7320, as well as recently adding the RG7321fm and RG1527M

Yea i think that RGA427 is Prestige. Can't wait for it as it will probably be what i get although i am REALLYYYY loving that RGD... Either way, interesting guitars are coming out and the prices are not looking TOO terrible. Just ready to see the final on everything.

I wonder how the RGA7 stands vs. an agile, since they're on the same price range...

Yea you gotta consider that a little more though. Those are most likely the LIST prices which are WAYYYY inflated compared to the street prices. For example, a Strat is LISTED at 750 USD but only sells for 500 USD or a Jem is LISTED at 3466 USD but sells for 2600 USD. My guess, the thing will be around 2,000 USD. Till real pricet but better than 2200€ for sure.

Yea, I know, but it's a ....load of money anyway for a bolt-on rosewood fretboard with ....ing dots guitar

This is correct. List price is different to street, and US prices are always cheaper on account of tax, currency etc.

RGA427 isn't going to be cheap though. I don't have any US prices but maybe 5% more than a JS1200.
